Here’s How to Watch the Curiosity Mars Landing (Update: Yeah!)

Share:

(UPDATE: Well, that worked out well. Be here later Monday for Emily Lakwadalla’s observations from Pasadena)

O hai. Curiosity’s landing on Mars is scheduled for 10:31 pm Pacific Sunday night, which is 1:31 am EDT early Monday and 0531 GMT. You wanna watch coverage? NASA TV’s streaming coverage is embedded above. Live coverage is scheduled for 8p PDT, 11p EDT. You can also get video with no commentary by clicking here. In case neither of those work for you, try this video stream through the Gannett newspaper chain:

And the folks up in Pasadena watching at Planetfest are streaming their own festivities live, too:

Thanks, Chris, I’m glad you feel the same as I do about the Mars landing. And, I wanted you to know from one Tennessee nerd to another your nerdist.com is Nerdtopia to me. Thanks and please keep it up.

Great site. This is such a big help. I’m a mechanical aerospace student right now and this is exactly what I want to do once I graduate. This helps younger people like me get inspire to fly our own rovers to Titan or Io or even to terraform mars and colonize it. Live long and be nerdy!

Not only is it apparently casual Friday at mission control but I caught a technician texting on his phone. If something goes wrong hopefully a real scientist is nearby in his whte lab coat. Perhaps smoking his pipe in the hallway.
